Old Woodridgean Association

Old Woodridgean Association Woodridge College & Preparatory School Alumni This appeal worked and the association reformed under a name change. The aim is to sell 500 tickets each year.

In 1958 several Woodridge Prep alumni held an inaugural general meeting to form the Woodridge Old Boys Association (WOBA) after attempting to contact the 300 or so past pupils. Their main objectives were to organise reunions and sports meetings, have old-boy representation on the Board of Trustees, assist pupils in need where necessary and for old boys to maintain friendships formed at the Prep. B

y 1963 the editor noted in the school magazine that ; “For the past few year the Woodridge Old Boys Association has been, to all intents and purposes, non- existent.” and appealed to all old boys to support them. They became the Old Woodridgeans Association (OWA) which worked well especially once the school began accepting female students. To date the OWA’s major fundraising initiative has been the 500 Club which hold lucky draws 3 times a year and give prizes of R25 000, 00; R7 500, 00 at each draw, as well as attendance prizes and lucky draws.
